Bring useful tools and themes to VIM

We all know that VIM is a powerful editor. But if you want to make it better, like adding more color, enabling mouse, and some useful tools... you should try this config profile :

Add these lines to your ~/.vimrc file :

syn on
set syntax=on
set t_Co=256
filetype indent plugin on
set nu
set mouse=a
set showmatch
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set softtabstop=4
set expandtab
set incsearch
set ignorecase
set smartcase
set cursorline
imap <C-Space> <C-X><C-O>
colorscheme mustang

The last line is actually calling a nice theme, "Mustang", which you can find on deviantArt :

You must put the theme file at this location : ~/.vim/.vimrc/colors/mustang.vim
